Benefits for Your Wallet & Environment

Annual Savings

Fuel costs to drive an electric vehicle are 40%-50% less than gasoline vehicles, dependent on the current price of gasoline. EVs also have fewer parts than an internal combustion engine, requiring less maintenance.

Consistent Price

Unlike the price of gasoline, the price of electricity is set by the State of Michigan. Rates are available that reward EV drivers for charging their vehicles during off-peak hours (7pm - 11am).

Tax Incentives

To offset the upfront cost of an electric vehicle, some consumers may be eligible for Federal Tax incentives up to $7,500 on some vehicles.
